Philippines: Korean company to conduct railway study for Davao

Korean Engineering Company (KEC) will be reporting by March next year on its findings for a possible railway line in Davao (a city in Mindanao, Philippines), according to the city council committee chair on transportation.
In an interview, transport committee chair Tomas Monteverde said that the engineers were already conducting studies on which possible railway project could be apt for the city.
“We have a choice of going for a system like a rail subway or a train line on an elevated platform,” Monteverde said.
The councilor added that the city was also inclined to have the railway system being operated on a build-operate-transfer system under a public-private partnership.
Davao City railway project could be finished before in 2016.
